NOTD - Flowers

Grace @ No.21Tuesday, May 7, 2013

I don't really take care of my nails as much as my skin but sometimes I want to try things. I can't even remember when is the last time I used nail polish. Probably a month ago! Anyway, I'm into 'flowers' recently and I just can't resist. This flower nails are fairly easy to create.

All you need to do is pick four colors that you like to use for base color for your nails (lighter color is recommended), base color for flowers (I used dark red-ish pink), color for the flower petals (I used natural nude color), and for the last, color for the leaves (I used mint-cream color). All nail polishes except base color for my nails is from e.l.f cosmetic and the base color is from sally hansen's xtream wear.

How to :
Color your nails with the base color of your choice and let it dry. For the shape, create 3 to 4 middle size imperfect circles on each nails to create base color for the flower and wait about a minute to dry. After when the first step is done, place 2 to 3 smaller dots (doesn't have to be perfect!) around the base flower and again, wait to dry for a minute. Now, it's almost done! When the second step is done, create leaves by dotting 1 to 2 little dots around your flower base & the petals. Let it dry, top coat it if you want and thaadaaa you are done!
